Hi life drawing friends!

On Day 22 of Figuary, we look at 1 minute poses and what you should aim to achieve when you only have 60 seconds! There are some fundamental things from our Figuary series that you can start doing in those quick poses that will set you up well for the rest of your practice session. A little bit for mindset, for your pace and for being bold.

Post your drawings to Instagram with the hashtag #figuary.

In case you haven’t heard about Figuary:
We are posting daily life drawing guidance videos – one useful tip about drawing figures each day, all structured to build on each other across the 28 days. Croquis Cafe will be posting daily practice sessions – life models posing for you to draw.

The idea is that you draw, even if only a little bit, each day for 28 days – the perfect amount of time to build a good drawing habit. Along the way, we will also start looking at powerful techniques to help take your drawings to the next level.

This first week was all about seeing the most important angles and curves in the pose. The second week was about the light and dark in the pose. The third week is about making confident and expressive marks on the paper. The fourth week will be about gesture and other additional tips.
